Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Jia family.

The three little kids, Banggeng, Xiaodang and Huaihua, were staring at the kitchen intently.

Bang Geng urged impatiently: "Mom, the dumplings are still a long way off, I'm so hungry!"

Qin Huairu said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you in such a hurry? The dumplings have just been put into the pot. They still need to be steamed for five or six minutes."

Bang Geng complained, "Why does it take another five or six minutes? Can't you make the fire bigger?"

The reason why the Jia family was able to make dumplings was thanks to Jia Zhang.

When Qin Huairu learned where Jia Zhang had hidden her money, she couldn't wait to take out Jia Zhang's coffin.

Wow, I didn’t know until I saw it, I was shocked, there were actually more than 600 yuan. While Qin Huairu was cursing Jia Zhang, a bright smile appeared on her face.

With a huge sum of more than 600 yuan in her pocket, Qin Huairu suddenly felt like a nouveau riche and went to buy a pound of pork on the spot to make dumplings.

After a while, a rich aroma came from the kitchen, and Banggeng and the other two couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

Bang Geng urged again: "Mom, are you done?"

"Okay, I'll serve it right away!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Huairu brought out the steaming dumplings.

Bang Geng looked at the dumplings, salivating, and said excitedly, "Mom, I want to eat for two people!"

Qin Huairu said with a sullen face: "There are only thirty in total, and you want to eat twenty by yourself, then what are we going to eat?"

Bang Geng pouted and said, "I don't care, I'm going to eat twenty. Grandma said that I'm the only man in the family, so all the good things should be given to me."

Qin Huairu said coldly: "Your grandma is in prison now. Since you listen to your grandma so much, how about I send you to prison now so that you can reunite with your grandma?"

Bang Geng shrank his neck and said timidly: "Grandma said that prison is not a place for people to stay. I won't go!"

Qin Huairu raised her voice and shouted angrily: "Don't let me hear 'Grandma said' 'Grandma said' again. I am the head of the Jia family now, and I have the final say in everything."

Qin Huairu's roar startled Banggeng and the other two. Xiaodang said timidly, "Mom, don't be angry. We will listen to you."

Huaihua immediately nodded and agreed: "Mom, I will listen to you too!"

Qin Huairu restrained her emotions and said expressionlessly: "Eat ten Banggeng, eight Xiaodang, seven Huaihua, and I'll eat five!"

Bang Geng stuck his neck out and said, "No, ten won't fill me up. I need fifteen."

Qin Huairu said with a sullen face: "Banggeng, since you don't agree with my allocation, then don't say anything. Xiaodang, Huaihua and I will each eat ten of the thirty dumplings."

Huaihua clapped her hands and said happily, "Great, I can eat three more dumplings."

Bang Geng suddenly became anxious and begged for mercy: "Mom, I was wrong, I agree with your distribution."

Qin Huairu glanced at Banggeng and said calmly, "Banggeng, I'll let you off this time. If you dare to go against me again in the future, you won't get any of them!"

Bang Geng said reluctantly: "Mom, I know!"

Qin Huairu nodded with satisfaction and began to distribute the dumplings.

Huaihua looked at the dumplings in her bowl, then at the dumplings in Banggeng's bowl, and pouted, "Mom, why does my brother have ten dumplings, my sister has eight dumplings, and I only have seven dumplings?"

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "Because my brothers and sisters are older, they eat more, so they should eat more."

Huaihua tilted her head and thought for a while, then said crisply, "No! Mom, you are the oldest, so you should eat the most. Why do you only get five dumplings?"

Qin Huairu paused for a moment, then said softly, "Because Mom has already eaten a steamed bun, so she's not that hungry anymore."

"Okay, stop asking so many questions. Eat quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

"Oh!"

Qin Huairu looked at the three children eating with gusto and a happy smile appeared on her face.

Although there were the most sticky rice stalks, they were also eaten the fastest. In the blink of an eye, the bowl was empty.

Bang Geng looked at the three left in Huaihua's bowl and said softly, "Huaihua, brother is not full yet, can you give me one?"

Hearing this, Huaihua hurriedly protected the porcelain bowl and said angrily, "No, I don't even have enough for myself, how can I share it with you?"

Bang Geng said with a dark face: "Huaihua, don't forget that your brother often gave you food before, you can't be ungrateful."

Huaihua pretended not to hear and quickly stuffed the remaining dumplings into her mouth.

Banggeng gnashed his teeth and said, "Huaihua, I will remember you, you ungrateful bastard."

"Bang bang!"

"Who is it?"

"Huai Ru, open the door, I am the master!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu hurriedly winked at Xiaodang and Huaihua, then picked up Banggeng and went into the bedroom.

"Master, wait a moment!"

After Qin Huairu carried Banggeng into the bedroom, she went to the kitchen and picked up a steamed bun and started eating it.

The reason why Qin Huairu did this was because she was afraid that Yi Zhonghai would smell that their family was eating dumplings.

"Squeak!"

After the door opened, Yi Zhonghai said gently, "Huai Ru, are Bang Geng and the others asleep?"

"I just coaxed the three little ones to sleep!" Qin Huairu complained, "When will this life end? I am a woman who has to work and take care of three children, and the most important thing is that I have a worrying mother-in-law at home."

"It's only been a few days since he was released, and now he's in again..."

Yi Zhonghai sighed and said, "It's really hard for you to meet such a mother-in-law!"

Qin Huairu said with a sad face: "There is nothing I can do, I can only blame my bad luck!"

Yi Zhonghai patted Qin Huairu on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "Huairu, don't be discouraged, I will help you."

Qin Huairu's expression froze slightly, and then she pretended to be grateful and said, "Thank you, Master. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do."

Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm your master after all, and it's my duty to help you!"

"By the way, have you found your mother-in-law's money?"

Qin Huairu heard this and became alert, "Could it be that Yi Zhonghai is here to ask her to pay back the money?"

Qin Huairu said with a worried look on her face: "I did find it, but it's only 87.3 yuan. I wonder if this is enough for everyone to write a letter of understanding?"

Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "Why is it only so little money? You deserve it?"

Qin Huairu's heart tightened, and then she pretended to be helpless and said, "Didn't I pay back nearly 400 yuan to Sha Zhu some time ago?"

Yi Zhonghai frowned, "Even so, Jia Zhang shouldn't have so little money left."

"Don't forget, when Dongxu got into trouble, the factory paid a lump sum of 500 yuan."

Qin Huairu's eyes rolled around and she instantly had an idea.

"Uncle, do you mean my mother-in-law has other places to hide her money?"

Yi Zhonghai nodded slightly, "Given your mother-in-law's love of money, she can't possibly give you all the money. She must have other places to hide the money!"

Qin Huairu smiled bitterly and said, "Even if my mother-in-law has other places to hide money, I can't find it. The last time my mother-in-law went to jail, I turned the house upside down, but found nothing."
